Malaysia Risks Being Left Behind in Quantum Technology Revolution
The United Nations declared 2025 as the International Year of Quantum Science, yet many Malaysian boardrooms remain unengaged with its revolutionary potential.
Quantum technology is projected to unlock up to US$500 billion in value by 2035 for the global life sciences industry. For Malaysia, this is not just a scientific milestone but a critical pivot point and next frontier for national competitiveness and security.
IBM has boldly predicted that 2026 will serve as the inflection point for witnessing true 'quantum advantage'. This means quantum platforms will soon solve highly complex, real-world problems far more efficiently than our most powerful classical supercomputers ever could.
